Minimal Surfaces in the Heisenberg Group
We investigate the minimal surface problem in the three dimensional Heisenberg group, H , equipped with its standard Carnot-Carathéodory metric. Using a particular surface measure, we characterize minimal surfaces in terms of a sub-elliptic partial differential equation and prove an existence result for the Plateau problem in this setting. Further, we provide a link between our minimal surfaces...
متن کاملHigher Order Parallel Surfaces in Three-dimensional Homogeneous Spaces
We give a full classification of higher order parallel surfaces in three-dimensional homogeneous spaces with four-dimensional isometry group, i.e. in the so-called Bianchi-CartanVranceanu family. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture formulated in [2]. As a partial result, we prove that totally umbilical surfaces only exist if the space is a Riemannian product of a surface of constant Ga...
متن کاملPolynomial Heisenberg algebras and higher order supersymmetry
It is shown that the higher order supersymmetric partners of the harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian provide the simplest non-trivial realizations of the polynomial Heisenberg algebras. A linearized version of the corresponding annihilation and creation operator leads to a Fock representation which is the same as for the harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian. 1. Introduction. The non-linear algebras have...
متن کاملThe Gauss Map of Minimal Surfaces in the Heisenberg Group
We study the Gauss map of minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group Nil3 endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. We prove that the Gauss map of a nowhere vertical minimal surface is harmonic into the hyperbolic plane H. Conversely, any nowhere antiholomorphic harmonic map into H is the Gauss map of a nowhere vertical minimal surface. Finally, we study the image of the Gauss map of compl...
متن کاملMinimal Surfaces and Harmonic Functions in the Heisenberg Group
We study the blow-up of H-perimeter minimizing sets in the Heisenberg group H, n ≥ 2. We show that the Lipschitz approximations rescaled by the square root of excess converge to a limit function. Assuming a stronger notion of local minimality, we prove that this limit function is harmonic for the Kohn Laplacian in a lower dimensional Heisenberg group.
